CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No.15/614,533, filed on Jun. 5, 2017, which claims the benefit of U.S.Provisional Application No. 62/345,728, filed Jun. 3, 2016; each ofwhich is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to bags, more specifically to handbags that aremultifunctional and can be used at least as a shoulder bag, briefcase,backpack, or satchel. The straps of the handbag are easily convertibleand can be worn in at least four or more different positions withoutremoving the strap from the handbag: cross-body, on the arm, on theshoulder, or as a backpack.

BACKGROUND

People who use large handbags often get tired of carrying their handbagswith their arms or when a user needs to free their hands, it would beimpossible with a handbag unless the user puts the handbag down. Duringtravel, especially in a busy area such as an airport or train station,putting one's handbag down runs the risk of it getting stolen orstained/damaged. Furthermore, it is also difficult to run with a handbagas it is cumbersome and impedes arm movement.

Today's handbags are usually designed for one purpose. If the personneeds a briefcase, then one would use a briefcase dedicated to holdingat least a computer, documents. If the person also needs a purse, thenthe individual would have a purse to carry personal items in addition tothe briefcase. A multifunctional bag, such as a tote, tends to be bulkyor large in appearance. A multifunctional bag that is large enough tocarry a computer and other large items, but sleek enough to use as apurse does not exist.

Handbag straps tend to be permanent and do not allow the user to switchthe position in which the individual carries the bag. If the straps areconvertible, it usually requires the user to remove and reattach thestrap in a different position. Or it requires the user to remove the oldstrap and connect a brand new strap designed for the new position. Thismakes it difficult for the user to convert the straps to differentconfigurations and to convert it quickly. When the individual is runningto catch the train, there is no time to change the straps on a handbag.Furthermore, existing handbags with adjustable straps are limited toonly a few configurations.

Accordingly, there is a need for a versatile handbag that is largeenough to carry a computer and other large items but classy and sleekenough to use as a handbag. There is a need for a bag to look like asatchel but functions like a backpack. There is also a need for quick,easy, and seamless converting of straps to cross-body, on the arm,shoulder, and backpack configurations without having to remove andreattach straps.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF SPECIFIC EMBODIMENTS

The description above and below and the drawings of the present documentfocus on one or more currently preferred embodiments of the presentinvention and also describe some exemplary optional features and/oralternative embodiments. The description and drawings are for thepurpose of illustration and not limitation. Those of ordinary skill inthe art would recognize variations, modifications, and alternatives.Such variations, modifications, and alternatives are also within thescope of the present invention. Section titles are terse and are forconvenience only.

The embodiments of the present invention as described allow a user towear the handbag 5 as a satchel, tote, crossbody, or backpack. Thehandbag 5 can be made of water-resistant leather or other similarmaterials. A preferred leather is pebbled and mimosa.

FIGS. 1-9 illustrate an embodiment of the handbag 5 comprising a bag 6that has a front panel 10, back panel 15, left panel 20, right panel 25,bottom panel 30, a plurality of bag studs 31, a flap 35, a handle 40, azipper 41, a belt loop 50, a single shoulder strap 54, and a pluralityof rings 74 comprising a right top ring 75, right lower ring 80, theleft top ring 85 and a left lower ring 90. Embodiments of the presentembodiment can function as a satchel or a backpack. The most common wayof using the present embodiment is holding it from the handle 40 and inthis configuration the bag 6 can double as a handbag 5 and a briefcase.The handle 40 is designed so the user can hold the bag 6 close to theirbody and close to the center of gravity. This makes the bag 6 feellighter. The handle 40 is flat but other shapes can be contemplated. Theflat shape increases the comfort level.

FIG. 1 illustrates the front panel 10 of the bag 6 having detailedvertical stitching 11 on opposing left and right ends. The verticalstitching 11 creates an illusion making the bag 6 thinner and smallerthan its actual size. The vertical stitching 11, horizontal stitching12, and lower horizontal stitching 13 draws a person's eye to the centerof the bag 6; therefore the actual width of the bag 6 is not asnoticeable. However, different variations of this stitching can becontemplated and also no stitching on the front panel 10 can also becontemplated in other embodiments of the present invention.

The bag 6 comprises a flap 35 and can be secured to the front panel 10using the belt loop 50. The belt loop 50 further comprises a securestrap 45, secure strap holes 48, a frame 46, and a belt loop hole 51.The bag 6 can close by using the zipper 41. Another method of closingthe bag 6 is by using a magnet. In this case, the user is not requiredto buckle the belt loop 50 and may secure the flap 35 by a magneticclosure, for example, between the flap 35 and the front panel 10; orbetween the secure strap 45 and the front panel 10. The user can useeither the handle 40 or shoulder strap 54 to carry the bag 6. The drophandle 40 is about 5.5 inches. To change from backpack to shoulder strapconfiguration, the user simply needs to hold the top portion of theshoulder strap 54 and let the bag 6 drop. The length of the shoulderstrap 54 extends through the top right ring 75 and top left ring 85 toform the shoulder strap configuration. This conversion from a backpackto shoulder strap setting is achieved in a single seamless motion,without requiring any disconnection or reattachment of parts, norrequiring the user to place the handbag on any surface to make theadjustment.

FIG. 2 illustrates the right panel 25 of the bag 6. The right panel 25is where the front panel 10 and the back panel 15 meet. The zipper 41extends towards the right panel 25. The bag 6 can be unzipped having theinside of the bag exposed as illustrated in FIG. 2 but because the bag 6has a flap 35 and belt loop 50, the user can secure their contents inthe bag 6 using this mechanism instead. By using the belt loop 50 toclose the bag 6, it allows the bag 6 to expand and carry larger itemssecurely. In the backpack mode as illustrated in FIG. 2, the singleshoulder strap 54 forms a left shoulder strap 55 and a right shoulderstrap 60. The left shoulder strap 55 formed by a length of the shoulderstrap 54 pulled between the top left ring 85 and bottom left ring 90;the right shoulder strap 60 formed by a length of the shoulder strap 54pulled between the top right ring 75 and the bottom right ring 80.

FIG. 3 illustrates the back panel 15 of the bag 6. The angle of the leftshoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap 60 make it comfortable on theshoulder when used in backpack mode. The back panel 15 comprises a backpanel pocket 16 where users can keep their cards.

The back panel 15 further comprises the plurality of rings 74 made up ofa right top ring 75, a right lower ring 80, a left top ring 85, and aleft lower ring 90. FIG. 3 illustrates the bag 6 in a backpack modebecause both the left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap 60 areslidably pulled downward until each side of the center section of theshoulder strap 54, hereinafter referred to as the stopper 65, makescontact against the right top ring 75 and left top ring 85 respectively.A width of the stopper 65 is larger than a diameter of the top rings 75and 85. The width between the right top ring 75 and left top ring 85 isdesigned to make the left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap 60comfortable for the user's shoulder. The width between the right lowerring 80 and lower left ring 90 make it comfortable for the user becauseit gently hugs the user's waist. This mode can be used when theindividual requires both of their hands or when the user is running. Itcan be contemplated that the location of the rings 74 can be changed onthe back panel 15. The rings 74 can be D-rings, round rings, or anyother hardware that will allow the left shoulder strap 55 and rightshoulder strap 60 to removably slide through.

FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 illustrate the left panel 20 and right panel 25respectively of the bag 6. From a side view, the left panel 20 and theright panel 25 have a narrow top and a wider base. When viewed from thefront or rear of the bag 6, (see FIG. 1 and FIG. 3), the left panel 20and right panel 25 form wing-shaped panels, flaring out from the widerbase to the narrow top toward the top of the bag. The top of the bag 6opens to about 16 inches wide and the base is about 13 inches wide. Theheight of the bag 6 is about 10 inches. The depth of the bag 6 is about6 inches. This allows the bag 6 to carry more items and still create thelook and feel of a thinner, less bulky bag 6. The interior of the bag 6can carry a laptop computer. The slanted back panel 15 makes it snugagainst the user's back when used in backpack mode.

When extended fully, the left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap60 are loops with large enough diameters making it easy for the user toquickly put the backpack on. The user can also wear the backpack on onlyone shoulder rather than both. In the backpack form, the shoulder strap54 is removably looped into the right top ring 75 and left top ring 85until the stopper 65 is against the right top ring 75 and left top ring85. The stopper 65 allows the user to know how much of the shoulderstrap 54 needs to be pulled in order to achieve the required loops madeby the left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap 60. The leftshoulder strap 55 is slidably pulled through the left top ring 85 andthe right shoulder strap 60 is slidably pulled through the right topring 75. Then the left shoulder strap 55 is slidably pulled through theleft lower ring 90 and the right shoulder strap 60 is slidably pulledthrough the right lower ring 80. Once the right shoulder strap 60 andleft shoulder strap 55 are removably looped into the right lower ring 80and left lower ring 90, the user can choose to make the diameter of theright shoulder strap 60 and left shoulder strap 55 smaller or larger bysliding more of the strap through the right lower ring 80 and left lowerring 90. Once the desired diameter is achieved, each strap can fold backon itself and is secured to itself using a shoulder strap stud 56. Theexcess length of the left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap 60can be feed through and held in place by the shoulder strap loop 70.

FIG. 6 illustrates the flap 35 and the secure strap 45 which is attachedto the flap 35. The bag 6 is in backpack mode with the stopper 65tightly wedged against the right top ring 75 and left top ring 85. Thehandle 40 gives the user the option to hold the bag 6 with a user's handor at the crook of the user's elbow.

The shoulder strap 54 having a wider center section of strap, referredto as the stopper 65, and a thinner portion of the strap on each side ofthe stopper 65. The stopper width 66 is shown larger than the strapwidth 67 on each side of the stopper 65 (not shown, see FIG. 5). Theshoulder strap 54, the bag 6 and the handle 40 can be made of Italianleather, however, other materials can be contemplated. It is preferablethat the shoulder strap 54, the bag 6, and the handle 40 are made of thesame material so as to show consistency and a classic look. The functionof the stopper 65 allows the user to quickly and easily convert thehandbag 5 from an over the shoulder configuration to a backpackconfiguration because the right top ring 75 and left top ring 85 havediameters which are smaller than the width of the stopper 65, whichblock the wider edges 66 of the stopper 65 from passing through when theuser pulls down on the shoulder strap 54. When the user converts thehandbag 5 to an over the shoulder configuration from a backpackconfiguration, the user engages the stopper 65 to easily grab theshoulder strap 54 and then releases the bag 6 to extend the shoulderstrap 54. The stopper 65 has a length which is suited as a handle foreasily grasping the strap 54 and for comfortably laying along the top ofa shoulder.

The shoulder strap 54 is slidably pulled in the backpack mode. The backpanel 15 (not shown, see FIG. 5) comprises of fillers making it stiff sowhen used in backpack mode or as a cross-body bag 6, the bottom panel 30does not fold into itself.

FIG. 7 illustrates the bottom panel 30 of the bag 6 having a pluralityof bag studs 31. The bag studs 31 allow the user to place the bag 6 downon a surface without damaging the bottom panel 30 such that the bagstuds 31 make contact with the surface.

FIGS. 8-10 illustrate the bag 6 in an intermediate mode, betweenbackpack and shoulder strap mode, according to an embodiment of thepresent invention. The user simply pulls on the stopper 65 until boththe left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulder strap 60 shorten andtransition into a shoulder strap.

FIGS. 11-12 illustrate the bag 6 in a shoulder/cross-body mode,according to an embodiment of the present invention. The shoulder strap54 is fully extended using the stopper 65. This transformation can bedown quickly, seamlessly and with ease because there is no need toremove and reattach the shoulder strap 54. The user also has the optionto use the handle 40 to carry the bag 6 when in this mode, allowing theextended strap 54 to simply hang to the side of the bag 6.

FIG. 13 illustrates that the shoulder strap 54 is completely removablefrom the bag 6. The shoulder strap loops 70 are also removable from theshoulder strap 54. The shoulder strap 54 is one continuous piece and itis through the engagement at the rings 74 that convert the one shoulderstrap 54 into two shoulder straps—a left shoulder strap 55 and a rightshoulder strap 60. The shoulder strap 54 is adjustable by using only onehand. The shoulder strap 54 is about 5.5 to 12 inches in length. Theshoulder strap 54 comprises shoulder strap studs 56 and shoulder strapstud holes 57 (not shown, see FIG. 15). The shoulder strap studs 56secure the shoulder strap 54 around the rings 74 when inserted into theshoulder strap stud holes 57.

FIG. 14 illustrates how the bag 6 can still be used even when theshoulder strap 54 is completely removed by using the handle 40,according to an embodiment of the present invention. The rings 74 arenot bulky so even when exposed, look sleek and unnoticeable. The righttop ring 75 and left top ring 85 are not removable from the back panel15. The right top ring 75 and left top ring 85 sit flat against the backpanel 15. Similarly, the right lower ring 80 and left lower ring 90 arenot removable from the back panel 15. The right lower ring 80 and leftlower ring 90 can also sit flat against the back panel 15.

FIGS. 15-18 illustrate the removal of the distal ends of the continuoussingle shoulder strap 54, (left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulderstrap 60) according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referringto FIG. 15-17 first the user pulls the portion of the left shoulderstrap 55 or right shoulder strap 60 that is proximate to the bottom ofthe bag 6, i.e. a first distal end or second distal end of the shoulderstrap 54, so that they are removed from the shoulder strap loop 70. Thenthe user pulls the shorter portion (the ends) of the left shoulder strap55 and right shoulder strap 60 so that the shoulder strap stud 56disengages from the shoulder strap stud holes 57. There is a pluralityof shoulder strap stud holes 57 on the shoulder strap 54. As shown inFIG. 18, once the shoulder strap studs 56 are disengaged with theshoulder strap stud holes 57, the left shoulder strap 55 and rightshoulder strap 60 can be slidably removed from the right lower ring 80and left lower ring 90. FIG. 18 illustrate how the right top ring 75 andleft top ring 85 look when the left shoulder strap 55 and right shoulderstrap 60 are completely removed from the right lower ring 80 and leftlower ring 90.

FIGS. 19-21 illustrate how the bag 6 can change from being thin andnarrow to a wide bag that can carry a lot of weight, according to anembodiment of the present invention. The zipper 41 can be used to closethe bag when there are smaller amounts of items in the bag 6. However,when the zipper 41 cannot close, the user can still secure the bag 6 bycovering the opening with the flap 35. If more width is needed, then theflap 35 is not required to fully cover the opening and can be leftinside the bag 6 as illustrated in FIG. 21. The position of the flap asillustrated in FIG. 21 can still be secured using the belt loop 50;however, the flap 35 would not entirely cover the opening.

FIG. 20 illustrates the belt loop 50 comprising the secure strap 45,frame 46, belt loop stud 47, belt loop hole 51, and secure strap hole48, according to an embodiment of the present invention. The securestrap 45 is first threaded through the secure strap hole 48 located onthe frame 46. Once the desired length of the secure strap 45 isdetermined, the frame 46 is pushed against the secure strap 45 so as tohave a belt loop stud 47 conjoin with a belt loop hole 51. There is aplurality of belt loop holes 51 made longitudinally along the securestrap 45. In order to unsecure the belt loop 50, one simply pulls on theframe 46 until the belt loop stud 47 disengages with the belt loop hole51. Then the secure strap 45 is pulled up until it is fully removed fromthe secure strap hole 48.

FIG. 22 illustrates how the bag 6 is opened, according to an embodimentof the present invention. After the belt loop 50 is unsecure, theindividual can lift the flap 35. The inside of the bag 6 is coveredpreferably of stain-resistant micro-suede material. However, any othermaterial that is soft to the touch, elegant and easy to clean can beused. The inside has different compartments to allow the user toorganize their belongings and to easily find items quickly. There is acentral compartment 92 that allows for large items such as a 15 inchlaptop and the like to be stored. There are other interior compartments94 that comprise at least seven other compartments that can carry a 13inch laptop, keys, mobile devices and the like. The bag 6 is largeenough to carry clothing e.g. sweater, documents, and the like.

FIGS. 23-27 illustrate various carrying configurations/settings/modes ofthe handbag 6. As illustrated in FIG. 23, the handbag 6 can be wornusing the handle 40 in the crook of the elbow. This allows the user tokeep the handbag 5 close to the body. FIG. 24 illustrates the handbag 5held in a hand, also using the handle 40. This configuration allows theuser to quickly grab the handbag 5 and go. FIG. 25 illustrates thehandbag 6 worn as a backpack. This configuration leaves the user's handsfree and allows a balanced way of carrying belongings while in movementor standing still. FIG. 26 illustrates the handbag 6 worn over oneshoulder. This configuration can be easily obtained by holding onto theshoulder strap 54 and letting go of the bag 6 such that the bag 6 dropsto extend the shoulder strap 54, for example from a backpackconfiguration. FIG. 27 illustrates the handbag 6 worn cross-body. Thecross-body configuration allows the user to secure the handbag 6 closeto the body and makes it easier for the user to run without having theshoulder strap 54 fall off the shoulder. The user may also hold the 40handle in this configuration. Transition to this configuration can alsobe easily achieved by holding onto the shoulder strap 54 and letting goof the bag 6 such that the bag 6 drops to extend the shoulder strap 54,again from a backpack configuration.
